My Missing Piece

Emergency placement

*Lucy POV*

The two days could not go fast enough. we have training both days so it felt quicker than it could have. i was off my game in training because i couldnt help but think about my daughter and what could be happening to her right now. luckily, my sloppiness goes unnoticed by most. Keira however, oh she noticed, and she questioned me about it as soon as we got home. 

Keira- what was that Lucy? 

Lucy- What was what? 

Keira- you were so off in training

Lucy- i know i know, im just worried

Keira- about what Luce, talk to me

Lucy- what if she is in that house right now, getting abused?

Keira- youre worrying about Skylar again 

Lucy- yes and i will continue to worry until i know shes safe and out of that house

Keira- just one more night to go 

Lucy- one night too long 

Keira- why dont you text her, check on her 

Lucy- good idea, ill do that 

I text her but get no reply, which is even more worrying for me. i just hope shes okay.

*Skylar POV*

its been a couple of days since i saw Lucy and Keira, im supposed to be going out with them tomorrow and being put in their care. im currently packing up a few clothes and everything else i will need for staying at Lucy's for a few days. my phone goes off so i walk over to check who it was but just before i get there im yanked away. someone tugged at the back of my tshirt and pulled me back, knocking me off my feet. i already know who it is.. ill give you one guess..

Anna- where do you think youre going missy 

Skylar- im going to stay round a friends house

Anna- i dont think so *throws Skylar against the wall* you have no friends, remember? *punches her in the stomach* So where are you actually going?

Skylar- i told you, to a friends house 

Anna- dont lie to me you stupid girl. 

i didnt even get a chance to answer back after she told me i was lying and called me stupid. she punched me right across the face, her rings cutting across my cheek. just as i was recovering from that hit, she did it again. as always she would carry on until i was weak, couldnt move and went unconcious. it was hope for her that i would wake up after a couple hours of unconciousness, it was hope that i wouldnt for me. what would i do if i did wake up? go through it all again, thats something i didnt want to face. 

i woke up finally, again. my phone was going mad. i managed to get up and get over to it before Anna got up here for round 2. i looked at who was calling me.. Lucy.. i looked at the time.. 10am.. im supposed to be meeting Lucy in half an hour at Jill's coffee shop. 

i gathered all my stuff back into my backpack and snuck downstairs and past Anna who was passed out on the sofa, what a surprise. 

once i was in the clear of the house i answer the call to Lucy. 

Lucy- Skylar! ive been messaging you all night! i was so worried. where are you? are you okay?

Skylar- Lucy, calm down. im on my way. ive just left home and im walking to Jill's shop now. 

Lucy- where are you? ill come pick you up

Skylar- no need, im just round the corner, ill be there in 2 minutes
